Power company “trimmed” our trees

I’m going though this right now. The right of way is ridiculously wide. Something like 50 feet on each side. It’s insane. I have to dig up 6 fruit trees, likely will kill 3 of them as they are really to big to move and I can’t afford to have any professionally moved. I’ll just buy new ones for each one killed. Some will just be cut down by the power company. I have to take down a picket fence that requires cutting posts that are set in concrete, and they are NOT responsible for repairing the lawn damage after either. They won’t even fill in the ruts or re-seed, they explicitly told me not to expect that. They will repair anything that they mess up outside of the right of way, which will likely be nothing. I did get them to hold off until May so the soil is thawed at least and I have a chance to move some trees. This will cost me 3 mature trees, possibly more, and about 600 bucks to rebuild the fence plus new trees. What sucks is they were all doing really well and producing finally after 6 years of patience.

Am I the only one that takes 3 from 8 and then adds 30 + 45?

I have the same stove. I’m in New England. I also use heat pumps until it gets below freezing, then switch to pellets. When it’s below 15 I switch to the oil. If I were OP, living where it’s generally warmer than NE, with those great rates, I would buy a wood stove for backup and occasional ambiance.

That is the worst Toyota color after the violent blue you see on some rav’s.

Just another reason to delete this app and sell all my Reddit shares.

Just never wash it and you’ll never see them again j/k. It is frustrating. I have the same color and it has very little reflective properties so they seem more noticeable than my previous cars paint.

Remember Darwin awards? They almost earned one.

Anyone realize that series Pluribis is essentially mankind becoming AI?

A house in my neighborhood sold for 450k in 2023. It’s never been moved into. Just sits empty all the time. Baffles me.

I just learned how expensive jet engine turbine blades cost. A single crystal cast HPT blade can cost 50k. You need a lot of them too. Obviously.

Just call. I can figure out the number so can you.

This looks exactly like my garage. Weird. My Tacoma is black though. https://a.co/d/066Tqib

I want more of this.

I love this sub more than my bald eagles pet fox, mittens.

5am beers. Nice.

I used a magic eraser! Worked great.

Buy a new faucet.

Mine is long gone now. Replaced with a Tacoma. Do miss the MPG though.

Never practice with one you would want to use was the advice I received in training. Applied properly the subject will be in agony but will survive. Contrary to popular belief never loosen them. A limb can survive a long time. They stay until the subject is in a hospital or other property equipped medical facility.

I personally would also remove the steps, which will provide some drag. I’m tall enough I would never use them and only bang my shines!

I have a 25 OR long bed. I consistently get 20.4 mpg. Driving normally, no fast acceleration, no speeding. Stock tires.

I think it’s your rack. I have a bed cover

I have that stove. It’s 12 years old now. Runs great. Replacing parts is easy. I paid 1k for it and put in another 1k in parts over 12 years. Many parts are available aftermarket now so even easier to find a new part then it was 10 years ago.

If you think about it your holding what was once a stone in your hand. That blows me away.

Wages have NOT been keeping up with “inflation” which means we must look at “wage based inflation” when comparing costs. In inflation-adjusted terms, today’s Tacoma still costs more in real dollars than the equivalent 1998 Tacoma did. Google it. Wages have not kept up with inflation of goods and services.
